Abstract: A rectangular dewatering tower (2) contains a bed of sludge layers (74) formed on a belt (70) laid in loops. Between the sludge charging from the top of the open tower to in each case one loop section of the belt and the removal of belt material together with the particular sludge layer at the lower end, the sludge is dewatered automatically under its own weight, and the issuing water can flow out downwards into appropriate collection troughs (50). During the removal, the belt passes together with the sludge layer through a slatted floor (40) which is formed from rods and which takes up the load of the sludge layer present in the tower. When belt material is removed together with the particular sludge layer, the tower moves to and fro on a straight-line track, and the passage opening (44) can be kept essentially stationary in spite of the movement of the tower by retraction and insertion of slats (42) from and into the slatted floor. The apparatus makes it possible to dewater large quantities of sludge at low energy consumption.

Abstract: A composite modular element for constructions generally comprising a body made from a foamed synthetic material is provided with preformed covering panels (9, 10) on the two opposite external faces of the modular element. The covering panels may be formed on site by pouring and levelling a cement mortar preferably reinforced with the aid of fibres onto a "shuttering" composed of a peripheral edge (6) formed on the face of the foamed-resin body and on which there is also a peripheral groove on the inside of this edge and a series of transverse grooves in order to give rise to a like number of ribs (11) of the formed cement-mortar panel, which assumes intrinsic load- bearing properties. The modular elements may be laid without clamping yokes, by virtue of their weight and their load-bearing capacity, and the panels of a facade are joined together permanently by "consuming" with the aid of a heat torch the foamed resin of the edges along the junction lines between the laid elements, and by filling in with mortar the breaks thus created in the mortar and levelling the surface of the external facade. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus for sensing automatic focusing includes illumination optical systems (14,15) for illuminating a sample. An objective optical system (5) receives light from the sample, and forms a first and a second image at the positions, which are apart from a prearranged focal plane by predetermined distances in front of the focal plane and behind it respectively. At least one image sensor (6) receives the first and second images formed by the objective optical system (5), and converts them into corresponding electrical signals respectively. A magnification sensor (8) senses the magnification of an objective lens (2). A CPU (10) computes the contrasts of the first and second images from the electrical signals. Further, when the magnification of the objective lens (2) is low, the CPU (10) senses the state that the image is in focus, according to the difference between the contrasts of the first and second images, and when it is high, the objective lens (2) or the sample is moved in an optical axis direction, and the CPU (10) senses the state that the image being in focus, according to the changes of the contrasts of the first and/ or second light image. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Un radioaltimètre Doppler pulsé, destiné à résoudre le problème de la distance ambiguë associée à l'utilisation d'un intervalle de répétition des impulsions qui est inférieur à l'altitude de l'avion, comprend un émetteur radar conçu pour émettre une première et une seconde séries d'impulsions, la première série ayant un intervalle de répétition des impulsions légèrement différent de l'intervalle de répétition de la seconde série. Au moment où la première série est émise, l'électronique du récepteur comprenant une porte de distance et un suiveur cherche les retours de terre et positionne la porte de distance pour qu'elle coïncide dans le temps avec le retour de terre détecté. La commande se décale alors pour que la seconde série d'impulsions soit transmise et on détermine si le chevauchement de la porte de distance avec le retour de terre de la seconde série correspond à la même altitude que celle obtenue avec la première série. Lorsque la réponse est négative, on sait que la distance détectée est ambiguë et le suiveur continue à repositionner la porte de distance (altitude) jusqu'à ce qu'une distance non ambiguë soit déterminée.

Abstract: Laser beams (12, 13) from separate sources (10, 11) are deflected by a rotating mirror (15) and pass via further mirrors (16, 17) and lenses (8, 9) into a measuring field for measuring dimensions of an object 3 in the x- and y-directions. This results in a simple, compact design. The optical systems, which are separate for two measuring directions, can be set optimally independently of one another, and this permits a high precision. Thanks to an offset of the optical axis of the incident laser beams (12, 13) with respect to the axis of rotation of the mirror (15), measurement is carried out in the two directions (x, y) at intervals spaced apart in time, so that the measuring signals can be processed in a common measuring channel. <IMAGE>
